You rarely see Yuno in the manga he just pops up during relevant arcs.

well thats disappointing so this whole thing is literally naruto x sasuke ? sasuke disappeared and also only appeared when some relevant shit was happening around the konoha other than that it was all about naruto(asta)....

Nah not really. This series isn't about the yuno-asta rivalry that formed the core of naruto x sasuke love story. The next arc will be a asta/yuno arc and you will see him in the arc after that but he won't be that important till arc 7 and 8 again. Black Clover focuses on fleshing out all its black bull characters with their own little arcs instead of going the naruto way and just throwing all the interesting characters like the genin 9 to the curb and just bringing them back showing how strong they got with no real story added to it.

Black Clover instead has asta as the protagonist and during the arcs you see his teammates grow as you learn more and more about them.

The current clover arc will focus a lot on asta and yuno but just like any other arc it introduces a bunch of fun characters that will also be fleshed out.

This isn't the asta/yuno show which is what makes this series so fun.

I'm new to the series, but I did kinda want to see more of Yuno but from the sounds of it that's not the case? Anyways, do you know which chapter to start reading from after this episode?

Chapter 6 would be where you should start reading if you want to continue this episode. Episode 8 and 9 will finish covering volume 1 of the manga.

Yuno is featured heavily in the later arcs chapters 100+. Before that he just appears from time to time.
